I've installed F21 64bit on my new, fresh out of the box Dell desktop.
Things are going great! (And, nuking Windows was satisfying.)
Now I'm trying to install F21 32-bit on my Acer Aspire One Netbook
D150-1055 single core 1.6GHz Atom Processor N270 2gig memory 160gig HD
laptop, using an LG portable super multi drive usb-dvd.
The images I've used are F21 workstation 32bit downloaded on 09 december
2014 and burned using F19 and dvd drive above, using CD/DVD creater,
then I re-downloaded the iso on 14 december 2014 and burned it on an
integrated dvd writer on my new dell machine running F21 workstation
64bit using brasero.
Both times my Aspire One kept on going in hibernation during the initial
bootup of the live-DVD of F21 workstation 32bit. I get about three
quarters of the way through the white tear drop startup screen and the
hibernation begins. Hitting any key wakes up the machine and things will
continue, and the hibernation keeps on occuring after about a minute,
and I keep on waking up the machine. This cycle keeps on occuring once I
get to the initial screen offering to run the live-dvd or install to the
HD. This is all while trying to boot up the live dvd and head directly
into the installation process.
No, I have not been playing with the power settings -- in fact, this
begins occuring during the bootup. Yes, the clamshell was fully open.
No, the power cord was not faulty. No, I was not running on battery with
low power -- in fact, I usually operate on electricity with the battery
pack out, and this never causes any problems. The unit is perfectly
stable with Fedora 19 and has always been since I first installed linux
on it with Fedora 11 in 2009, and has never had problems with Fedora 11,
12, 14, 15, 17, and 19.
Is anyone else having a similar problems with the live-dvd for F21
suddenly always going into hibernation on a similar machine or other
laptop?
Thank you
